Competitors:
Their competitors are known to be StudioCanal, Film4 Productions and much more.
StudioCanal was co-founded by Pierre Lescure in 1998. The CEO is Ross Coleman and its owned by the Canal+ Group. Unlike Working Title, StudioCanal is a French-based production and distribution company that also owns the third-largest film library in the world. StudioCanal has produced films such as The Pianist, a 2002 historical drama film, My Blueberry Nights which is a 2007 romance drama/road film. It has also produced and distributed films like Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, a 2011 Cold War espionage film etc. In the time when it was called as Le Studio Canal+, they produced the most notable movies such as: Terminator 2: Judgment Day, a 1991 American science fiction action thriller movie, JFK, an American 1991 political thriller movie and others.
In 1991, Working Title released the movie Drop Dead Fred, it's a British-American fantasy comedy film that earned a box office of $13,878,334 in the USA. In the same year, StudioCanal released the movie Terminator 2: Judgement Day, it's a American science fiction action thriller film that earned a box office of $519.8 million. If we compare both of these movies we will realise that StudioCanal's movie has a more impressive box office. One of the reasons why Terminator 2: Judgement Day has a better result could be because of the main protagonist being Arnold Schwarzenegger and others.
Film4 Productions was launched in 1982. Tessa Ross became the head of Film4 in 2004. Film4 Production is also a British film production company like Working Title that has been responsible for backing many films made in the United Kingdom. Film4 produced films such as The Pope Must Die, a 1991 comedy film, My Name Is Joe, a 1998 British film, Me and You and Everyone We Know, a 2005 American romantic comedy-drama film, Hunger, a 2008 British/Irish historical drama, The Selfish Giant, a 2013 British drama film and others.
In 2013, Working Title released the movie Closed Circuit, it's a British-American crime thriller film that earned a box office of $6,225,496 in the USA. In the same year, Film4 released the movie 12 Years A Slave, it's a historical drama film that earned a box office of $187.7 million. we can see that Closed Circuit's box office was more successful compared to the Film4's movie and the reason could be because its starring Eric Bana, Rebecca Hall,Ciarán Hinds & Jim Broadbent and others.
